Whether the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration Related Unfair Employment Practices Is Empowered to Challenge the Constitutionality of State Statutes
The statutory exemption for "discrimination . . . otherwise required in order to comply with law, regulation, or executive order" excludes from the scope of the Office of Special Counsel's jurisdiction all discriminatory activity based on state law. The OLC does not provide release dates for its opinions, so the release date listed is the date on which the opinion was authored. The original opinion is available at www.justice.gov/file/24176/download.
